Port Unions non-negotiation tactics.

[skews13]

Port unions are refusing to show up to negotiate their future. How are they supposed to arrive to a compromise if they won't even show up? They are getting a 32% pay raise already, but they want more and a ban on automation.

So if you notice your cost of groceries and other stuff to double in price in the near future, better you know it is not the profiteering of some CEO, but some gigantic Union.

Overtime paybon Sundays should be 2.5 times regular pay.

You must be rich and can afford the price for everything going up.

You mean workers want to make more and companies aren't willing to pay unless workers use their power and force them?

This is why you guys are wrong to think Trump is going to help the middle class. You don't even realize how important unions are to having a middle class. And I predict one of the first things Trump is going to do is take on unions. And you'll cheer him on not realizing you are cheering on the end of the middle class we knew and loved.

You can run all the illegals out so jobs are plentiful. Companies won't pay labor enough unless unions exist. If workers don't have the power to go on strike, they hav no power at all. You people who work but don't belong to a union don't realize how important they are. Hell, half the people who are in unions don't understand it. If they did Trump wouldn't be president.

Who do you think Trump is going to side with on January 15th?

Dockworkers’ union to suspend strike until Jan. 15 to allow time to negotiate new contract​

The UAW filed unfair labor practice charges against Trump and Musk after the two discussed on social media about Musk supposedly firing striking workers.

Trump praised Musk for firing workers who went on strike. The UAW contends this could intimidate workers for the Trump campaign or at Tesla who might want to join a union.

“You’re the greatest cutter,” Trump told Musk. “I look at what you do. You walk in and say, ‘You want to quit?’ I won’t mention the name of the company but they go on strike and you say, ’That’s OK. You’re all gone.'”

Wages don't cause prices to go up. That's bunk.

Sleepy Joe will be President on 15 January, not Trump.

Personally I don't know what Johnny Friendly will be doing, but the dockworkers union has their own agenda for sure.

To be honest, I don't agree with their demand that the foreign companies who own our docks can't automate. It's not right. A company should be able to automate. They shouldn't be forced not to just to protect jobs.

They got big raises. Don't worry about future workers. We won't need them. AI and Automation taking over. And besides. Half of you (union workers) voted for Trump so you don't give a shit.
